Cub Scouts is a year-round, family-friendly program designed for boys and girls who are in kindergarten through fifth grade (ages 5-10). Activities are used to achieve the aims of Scouting: citizenship training, character development and personal fitness.

Cub Scouts have the time of their lives making new friends and learning new things in an environment designed to help them succeed. From building their own Pinewood Derby car to learning how to roast the perfect marshmallow with their best friends at a family camp out, your child will love being a Cub Scout!

Scouts BSA is designed for boys and girls ages 11-18. Scouts learn responsible citizenship, character development and self-reliance through participation in a wide range of outdoor activities and educational programs.

For over 110 years, Scouting programs have instilled in youth the values found in the Scout Oath and Scout Law. Today, these values are just as relevant in helping youth grow to their full potential as they were in 1910. Scouting helps youth develop academic skills, self-confidence, ethics, leadership skills, and citizenship skills that influence their adult lives.

In Scouting, Scouts learn through the experiences of camping, hiking, building projects and community service. These experiences allow the youth to grow and mature at their own pace.

Scouting provides youth with a sense that they are important as individuals. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, Scouting promotes activities that lead to personal responsibility and high self-esteem. As a result, when hard decisions have to be made, peer pressure can be resisted and the right choices can be made.

Exploring is a career learning program for young men and women between the ages of 14 and 20. Exploring units, called posts, usually have a focus on a single career field, such as police, fire/rescue, health, law, aviation or engineering.

Exploring is a worksite-based program that is part of Learning for Life's career education program. Youth who are 13 years old and within 6 months of their 14th birthday can also register as Explorers. Any youth may remain an Explorer up until the day they turn 21 years old.

Exploring is broken up into three separate programs: Business, Law Enforcement, and Fire and Emergency Services Exploring. Exploring's purpose is to provide experiences that help young people mature and to prepare them to become responsible and caring adults.

Exploring is based on a unique and dynamic relationship between youth and the organizations in their communities. Local community organizations initiate a specific Explorer post by matching their people and program resources to the interests of young people in the community.

Sea Scouts is a program of the Scouting America for young men and women ages 14 to 20. For over 100 years Sea Scouting has promoted better citizenship and improved members' boating skills through instruction and practice in water safety, boating skills, outdoor, social, service experiences, and knowledge of our maritime heritage.

Sea Scout units, called ships, are established all across the country on oceans, bays, rivers, and lakes. They provide limitless opportunities and exciting challenges that you won't find anywhere else. Sea Scouts is a place to grow and learn, find adventure, and build long lasting friendships. Sea Scouting doesn't take place on just an actual ship; you can participate on land, on a small boat in a man-made lake, or even under the water.
